About this experience

In plain dark, using a headlight, we absorbe the dazzling sounds of the night at the mountains. Once at Pico Ruivo we attend the amazing sunrise ever... After the sunrise we do the same way back but this time we will have the sun as a guide and the views will be amazing. After the Hike we will show you some view points.

Great hike, friendly guide.
Due to a nervous partner when walking at height, we went hiking with Goncalo in a small group of 4 on the trail to Pico Ruivo. It was a great hike, and Goncalo is a sound and friendly guy who had a lot of knowledge about the area. Good day out filled with laughs. Would recommend Goncalo as a guide for sure.

Sunrise Hike
Great Hike. Spactacular views and phenomenal photo opportunities. Did the hike with Goncalo as my guide. Very knowledgeable, safety is his priority, and knows how give a good hike. Highly recommend both Goncalo and the sunrise hike.

Why this scores 55
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Pico Ruivo Sunrise - SMALL GROUP: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Funchal.
How much does Pico Ruivo Sunrise - SMALL GROUP cost?
+
Prices start at $95 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Funchal usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Pico Ruivo Sunrise - SMALL GROUP take?
+
Plan for about 4 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Funchal is not rushed.
Is Pico Ruivo Sunrise - SMALL GROUP worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 55 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 2 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Funchal, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Pico Ruivo Sunrise - SMALL GROUP?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Pico Ruivo Sunrise - SMALL GROUP suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 4-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Pico Ruivo Sunrise - SMALL GROUP?
+
Around 1 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Funchal can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Funchal and add a light layer if any part of the 4-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Pico Ruivo Sunrise - SMALL GROUP start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Funchal within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Funchal?
+
On Outty we rank every Funchal experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Jeep Tour Amazing West to Natural Pools -Full-Day, Porto Moniz, Seixal, Fanal Forest, Cliff Skywalk in Open Roof 4X4, West Tour-Fanal Forest & Porto Moniz Natural Pools Small Groups. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Funchal?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Funchal?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
